The Air Intelligence Unit of the Customs Department on Thursday arrested a Kannur-native while attempting to smuggle in defunct currency notes of 500 and 1,000 denomination, worth Rs 10 lakh, through the Nedumbassery airport, in what could be termed as an ‘impact’ of the demonetisation drive.

Abdul Salam, 50, a native of Panoor in Kannur, was taken into custody when he arrived at the airport at 9 am from Dubai.
